I want to reach out to everybody with my music and my album. Calum had a number two hit with his cover of Robyn’s original. He once said that ‘Dancing on My Own’ ‘completely changed my life and how I approach writing’. Calum Scott Responds To Dancing On My Own Cover Criticism.

Every single one of my peers is talking about “Dancing on My Own” all the time.’ She presumably has Jack Antonoff in mind here, her long-time collaborator who has also produced albums for Taylor Swift, Clairo, Lana Del Rey and St Vincent. “Dancing on My Own” - that song is just the Holy Grail. The Swedish disco queen Robyn, meanwhile, provided a spoken-word ‘outro’ to ‘Secrets from a Girl (Who’s Seen it All)’, and left Lorde in awe. ‘I wanted it to feel like me and my friends a little bit more,’ she explains. She had been listening to a lot of The Mamas & the Papas and Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young, and decided to form her own virtual choir, employing Phoebe Bridgers and Clairo as backing singers. (Naturally, this is precisely the sort of self-awareness that her fans treasure.) And it feels significant that it is her first recording to include voices other than her own. ‘If you’re looking for a saviour, well that’s not me,’ she sings on ‘The Path’. It’s also an album that actively discourages her fans from investing too heavily.
